VERY RARE Vintage Zildjian 16” FACTORY STAMPED RIDE 1060 g Tight Controlled Responsive! Versatile
FROM THE 1960s! A Vintage Zildjian Factory Stamped “RIDE” in the ultra responsive, fast 16” SIZE!!! Extremely rare and a hell of a lotta fun to play! Fantastic piece to round out a Vintage set! Secret weapon in the studio!
Golden lathed and beautifully hand hammered, this 1960s gem has all the light and airy tone of the 1960s and being a 16”, IT’S VERY CONTROLLED.
Tight with a great attack and articulation but still Vintage warm.
Weighing in at a lovely 1060 grams, it plays like a great semi-dark semi-dry controlled ride that still CRASHES beautifully!
Much more controlled both in overtones and volume than the 20” version or even the rare 18”. Still has a cutting bell that is classy and not overbearing.
Tight. Dry. Focused. Quick response. Great for fast sticking.
Goes from soft to loud with ease. At home in any setup, any genre!
Incredibly rare and collectible.
